*E101S-19. Modern Psychoanalytic Intervention Strategy

This course explores the Modern Psychoanalytic contribution to intervention strategy in the treatment of preoedipal patients. Students will explore a range of interventions used to foster the narcissistic transference, resolve resistance and promote treatment success. In particular, students will examine how modern analysts intervene in the beginning of treatment; how they address treatment destructive and other resistances according to Spotnitz’s suggested protocol; and generally how resistances are understood, managed and resolved. Participants are invited to present case examples.

Wednesday

Born in 1885, Sabina Spielrein was an early pioneer of psychoanalysis. Her writings provide insights and analyses of the culture and interests of the time. She was also an eloquent writer who described her own personal struggles. She progresses from being a patient at the Burgholzi to becoming a medical student in Zurich, to being involved in the beginnings/birth of psychoanalysis. This course seeks to right a wrong in recognizing a neglected pioneer and thinker. We will cover her three most important and essential works.

E104S-19. From the Cradle to the Grave: Attachment Style’s Impact on Adult Romantic Relationships

Using the work of John Bowlby and Mary Ainsworth as a springboard, this course will explore the ways in which infant-caregiver relationships affect our adult relationship patterns. Whether you’re looking to examine your own attachment/relationship associations, or hoping to gain insight into couples-work, this 4-class course will include discussion on attachment theory and how partner choice and ongoing relationship issues may be the natural consequence of early attachment experience and styles.

Thursday

*E105S-19. Trauma: Clinical Issues

In this course, students explore the therapist’s awareness of indicators of post-traumatic stress and examine theoretical overviews and treatment perspectives. Case examples of patients displaying a range of traumatic sequelae are presented in order to identify elements of psychic and physical trauma, the aftermath of trauma (PTSD), and various treatment approaches.

E107S-19. Psychoanalysis and Hypnosis

Psychoanalysis grew out of hypnosis. In fact, Freud who had been trained in hypnosis in France before developing psychoanalysis, began his psychotherapy practice in Vienna as a therapeutic hypnotist. In those days, therapeutic hypnosis was done with the subject lying on a couch. When Freud gave up hypnosis, he repurposed the couch. Let me be presumptuous enough to assert that Freud misunderstood hypnosis. Had he a modern understanding of hypnosis, he would not have abandoned the practice and psychoanalysis today would be very different. In this workshop I want to introduce the participants to the uses of hypnosis in a psychotherapy practice with a particular emphasis on its usefulness for psychoanalysis. No one will quack like a duck, but participants might discover some of the benefits (and fun) of going into a trance.Limited to four participants. If there are more than four, another workshop will be held.
